Anyone have any hints or last minute pieces of advice prior to beginning training? I intend to walk in with a positive attitude and will try to absorb everything like a sponge. I come from an airline that doesn't have initial AQP so I am familiar with the process. I plan to put in the work and study hard, but is there anything that new hires typically have trouble with? Is everyone fitting within the allotted amount of sim sessions? Any tid-bits of input would be greatly appreciated!
Be humble.
Pay attention in class.
Be sociable with the others, you're all in the same boat.
Be sure to lighten up and have a few jokes handy.
You WILL ace the systems test if you study the CBTs...
You WILL pass your oral if you study what the instructors tell you to study (It's a lot of info BUT the way it's laid out is VERY intuitive)
Be sure to visit Vinny's when you need to unwind. Get the double IPA.
You've got 5 FTDs and 9 sims before your type ride....you'll be VERY ready when your day comes.

If that furlough you just described happens the pay won't be the same.
In fact it was lower at the legacies than Spirits the last go around when they came off strike.
3000 over five years is also a huge stretch.
That's also if it stays at 65, which in my opinion will be 67 before it's over.
Everyone chill, there's a contract on the way. There's squares to be filled first. That's all.

Just have a good attitude.
It's a great training department. From the ground instructors to the check airmen.
You could get the Quizlet app, search for Frontier Airlines.
Load up the lights and switches, limitations etc and use the flash cards to study.
You'll get plenty of sim time.
Good luck.

I'll agree with this as well. Our training department and the guys in there are great.

What is the crashpad situation like in Mco these days? Any decent ones? I.E. own bed and resonable transportation options? I'm thinking of bidding MCO in this latest vacancy, and will be right on the edge of holding a flying relief line or possibly an all RES relief line. If there are suitable crashpad options, I might go for it. This would be for a June 1 base transfer. Thanks for the insight!
